Sage Keele was a former Pensacola Correctional officer who was arrested for trying to kidnap his Tinder date. Sage appeared before his date at their last meeting place, the lady’s apartment. He proceeded to give her two choices, to which she replied that she would willingly go with the third.

Sage then showed her a few pills, which she thought to be some harmful drugs, and thus immediately snatched them away from Sage. Angered by her actions, Keele tried to attack her and chased her to her car.

Before the lady could close her car doors and lock them, Sage took control, blocked it and entered the vehicle, and tried to zip-tie her former date. When a passerby saw the crime, Sage mockingly made a joke out of the scene and exit the vehicle.

But soon he would resume his threatening actions again and this time, the lady’s roommate arrived at the scene and scared Sage away. Police were called to the scene and they tracked down Sage’s phone. Sage was arrested the very next day and held with a $76k bond.

Sage Keele was arrested on September 23, 2020, for a kidnapping attempt on his former Tinder date. He tried to get into her car and zip tie her, with some ulterior motive of causing harm to her.
